About this event

As the veil between worlds begins to thin, The Soul of Samhain returns to the Séamus Ennis Arts Centre as part of Ireland’s Home of Halloween.

Enjoy the Harvest Food Fair and other events including Herbs, Hexes and Halloween, breadmaking workshops, fun children's Halloween themed workshops, music and Irish Mythology podcast!

11th, 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th, 30th October 2026.
